StiffLegged deads pump my lower back hard. A theory I'm coming up with is that my 'mind-muscle' connection with my lower back must be very good. If I focus on just keeping my chest up and pulling through hams then it'll be fine, if I focus on squeezing the spinal erectors then they'll be cramping hard after 1 or 2 sets.
I hear going on the juice can give terrible low back pumps throughout the day, if that's the case then it would kill me!
Also, skipping is awesome, I'm getting really fast.

Barbell Skullcrushers

Tried out my elbow sleeves for one set of DB press, really hard to get on and then I have to take them off straight after the set because they mess with my arms' blood supply. I'll just use them for CG benching from now on as that's where they'll probably be most beneficial, and I keep cg reps low so they'll only be on for short bursts of time. Have to protect the elbows!

Well, ye know, I say that alot . Tricking myself into thinking I'm gettin loads done LOL
That was actually an okayish set though tbh, I stopped at 9 but probably could have kept going for another few if I really wanted to feel it in the morning.

It's to see who lasts the longest b4 resetting, but I'll gladly take on a reps battle too!

Ya gotta remember his "reps" are;
pull a single
stand up for a few seconds
pull a single
stand up for a few seconds

Doesn't really compare!

Even when I'd a 40+ inch waist I'd never any problem doing that..

[cardio,shoot me]

fat guys can be fit and besides what the disadvantage of taking a small breather? if i remember kevpants does it, it just seems to make more sense to me to reset fully between reps

You remember wrong... and it's not a "smaller" breath. I dunno how you can't breathe bent over.

Disadvantage = you're not working as hard! It becomes more of a rest pause set than a normal set.

And I'm not dragging Kev's log anymore off topic now. Logs are for logging, not discussion, imo.

Oh so the reps battle was already in full swing without me actually knowing eh?
It's all good
